Big K you got it 100% correct when you asked how many people are engineers at heart. Engineering lies more in the heart and less in the brain then most people think. It's all about the passion, creativity and concern to makes things better. Like anything else, I know there are some engineers who can quote formulas and theory until they are blue in the face but lack the passion & desire and others who lack formal theory education but have a strong drive of desire to create, design & improve. It takes all kinds to make the world go round. It is sad that many people feel pressured to be in a career just to "be in that career". Do what makes successful in your own heart, whether that's washing dishes or working for NASA, that's the key to happiness. Anyways, that's my 2 cents worth
Perfect!

In my opinion, engineering is about 'attitude'. So, anyone - a doctor, a housewife, a 10 year old kid, an artist : everyone is an engineer in his/her own way.

Look what we have on our About CE Page -
